Distributor Kew Media Distribution has promoted Graham Begg to the newly created position of SVP Acquisitions & Business Development.
In this role, Begg will oversee a broad portfolio of acquisition opportunities spanning scripted, non-scripted, documentary and factual entertainment properties, as well as advise on corporate activities and business development initiatives.
Begg will continue to work closely with Kew’s 13 production companies on collaboration opportunities with KMD and further exploiting those companies’ IP globally. Begg joined KMD in 2018 as VP, Business Development and Producer Relations.
Greg Phillips, President, KMD, said: “Since his appointment last year, Graham has been instrumental in securing several major projects and deals for us including BBC’s Worzel Gummidge, which was so well-received at Mipcom, and a multi-year distribution agreement with leading LA-based media company Participant. He’s the ideal executive to propel our acquisitions strategy forward and to build new partnerships for KMD”.
Graham Begg said: "After what has been an extremely productive and rewarding year, I look forward to expanding my contribution to the company and continuing to build on the amazing work of the KMD team across business development, sales, and creative partnerships.”
